Minion Core Functions

  • FFXIV uses a lot of memory and has a bad memorymanagement itself, in order to prevent crashes, set your graphics to the lowest level possible.

Grind Mode

Set the bot mode to Grind Mode
If you want to do Fates please select “Do Fates”
Furthermore if you want the bot to ignore all grind markers you can put a tick in Fates Only.


Tweaks: Here you can choose which fate types you wish to do, or what % of completion each specific fate is at before attempting to join it.


Markers: If you want to set a specific Evac or Grind point set up a Marker in the Marker Manager.

Once you Create a new marker, you can edit the marker for your desired effect.
Here I've set the first marker level range 36-40 It will Grind at this marker till it levels to 41, then it will move on to the next marker that is 41-45


Party Grind Mode

To set up Party Grind you need to set the Bot Mode to Party-grind.

Party Grind is for Grinding open world and requires a Navmesh to work. A typical set up would consist of a leader bot on Grind, or a player playing manually. Then other bots in party.

By using “Use Party Leader” and all grouped up the bots set to party grind will follow the leader around attack what the leader attacks.

Another set up for party grind would be boosting a lower level character with a higher level character. To do this the Higher level character would have to be out of party. So you would set the higher level character to party grind remove the tick in “Use Party Leader” then Target the character you want to follow and hit Target→Leader. This will cause the higher level bot to follow the lower level character around and kill what it kills.

Next you want to set the Profile for the Duty you are going to run.

Next you want to select the skill profile for the class you want to run

Next under the settings tab you can set loot options (if you are doing chest or bosses in your profiles)
